This term in Room 7 we are asking

"How Do We Get There?"

- We Are Building Together! -

Mr Duncan is planning to have a walkway in our improved gully area.
He would like all the TAP's kids to be able to look down at some of the native shrubs that will be growing in the gully.
The shrubs grow to about half a metre so ...
he is going to dig a trench about a metre across and plant the shrubs in the trench.
What type of bridge would you suggest he build and why?
